I don't believe everyone would stop paying for their grazing rights if the government just ignored Bundy. Most people properly pay their taxes, don't want the aggravation, and choose to obey the law. What the government should do is put a lien on his place and when he dies, or it is sold, those back taxes must be paid off first. They should have other things to do to keep them busy.

The real criminals reside in our government. And I find it absolutely disgusting that some actually believe the government can do whatever the hell they want and anyone who doesn't submit to their nefarious actions is somehow the "criminal."

This whole "do as your told" nonsense needs to stop, however sadly the majority of the US population has been conditioned to submit to alleged authority and will forgo their constitutional rights and civil liberties to make it easier for the government to pound them in the ass.

IMO, this country as turned into a nation of puppets that find it patriotic to do as they're told by their masters - the government(s).

Cool. I think I am going to watch your house, and as soon as you leave, steal everything in it. After all, if the police don't bust me for it, it's not tyranny. If the police does bust me, however, I think I have a valid case to make at FOX News that the government was suppressing my freedom to steal. TYRANNY, I say.

It's worse that the Federal Government is using the land as bribes to enrich politicians, but you don't seem worried about that.

Without specifics it is impossible to respond.
What politician, what land as bribes?

The FBI is doing its job. There looking into the allegation that some of the Bundy supporters pointed weapons at law enforement officials. If they didn't, they will be cleared. If they did and it can be proven, they should be charged.

You figure that out.

I have figured it out, but you continue this fruitless labeling that is bringing us to the verge of an argument (not debate mind you, argument). And no one is questioning you for anything. Moot wasn't even referring to you and you're at this point just trying so hard to speak with people who wish to not associate with you, a man who has this irrational hatred for all progressives.

You may as well be gone with your bigotry. You're plain-viewed bigotry that is so large it may as well engulf this entire thread.

Charged they should be, those non-chivalric bastards who are so below that of man that they must hide behind and ENDANGER their opposite gender (not that women are weak, but men are generally stronger, well, GENERALLY stronger... Maybe not here... in this case...).

Pray to something that these fools don't aim at the FBI again, let alone shoot, because in that case they all may as well be erased from this Earth so as to cleanse it of some of its trash.
